We're Gonna Need A Bigger Boat & maybe a Patronus!

The sun was actually shining on and off today (amongst the clouds) so I got some quality swatching time in, yeah. Probably not a major thrill to most, but I was pretty happy, nail nerd that I am...

I bought these polishes from Dollish Polish back in October, but I never got good photos of them so it's taken me a while to get a post together.

We're Gonna Need A Bigger Boat is inspired by Jaws. Blood in the water? It's an ocean green blue shimmer with small and medium red hex glitter. You get great coverage in 2 coats and it's so unique! According to Dolly, my batch was a lot greener than it's supposed to be. If you go to the shop she has colour accurate bottle and macro shots.

Expecto Patronum - 3 coats - overcast

Expecto Patronum is amaze-balls! Inspired by the patronus in Harry Potter, it has a soft white creme base with fine flaky shimmer that shines orangey gold in some light and cyan glitter - fine and medium hexes! It does take about 3 coats to get good coverage and even-ness so I recommend just layering it over a white creme - looks the same but you waste less of the beauty!THIS POLISH HAS SINCE BEEN REFORMULATED
